Really hoping to see the best squad out there today.

Wouldn't mind seeing Goodson run with the first team for some part of the game

It will be the first team today. I think we'll see Gooch go another 65 or so minutes. Apparently he has looked more comfortable in the air and on his leg in scrimmages during the week.

USA! USA! USA!

I'm looking forward to seeing the kind of crowd we have out there today.

Supposed to be over 45k.

That's what's up.

We could use similar support in qualifying.

I want to play Mexico in Seattle from now on.

I think we'll see the first team so

Jozy Gomez/Buddle
LD Clark Bradley Demps
Boca Gooch Demerit Spector
Howard

I like Edu a bit better than Clark but I don't care too much either way and I have a feeling Bob still considers Clark to be first choice.

I bet Gooch will get 30 minutes or so in the second half.

Not a true A-team in my opinion with Goodson, Feilhaber, and Clark all in the starting line-up.

Btw, did you ever put up the World Cup profiles?

I suspect he'll keep LD on the left and put Benny on the right.

Not a bad team, Benny and Goodson are the only two I wouldn't consider true A team guys.

Servet and Gokhan Zan is a really slow but physically intimidating center pairing. Caglar is a young player, don't know much about him.

Poor Hamit is being stuck at right back again because he is the only talented guy willing to be rotated around like a scrub.

Emre, Arda, and Tuncay are about as a-team as you can get. Selcuk Inan is a good holding mid, and while Kazim sucks, everyone in Turkey thinks he is awesome because he is black and tatted up.

But I think you are missing a player...unless Turkey is that confident of a win

The roster in the OP is correct. All of this is coming from Twitter.
